    I don't know.
    Exit Clearance, new rules you may already know.
    Dammit, theres always a snag. So me and my girl came all the way to Cebu on Sunday in order to have plenty of time to get the (over 6 months stay) exit clearance. Of course Monday was a holiday. No problem, still two days left, irght? Ahh, but today is a holiday in Mandaue only, immig closed we discovered on arrival at J-Mall. But...guard said we could do it in Lapu-Lapu Gaisano Mall. OK, more taxi rides $ across the bridge. In ...Immig a 50+ white foreigner Lady-Boy sat nearby as I waited. I mean he/she was decked out ala Bruce Jenner, in a wig, dress, heels, full make-up, etc.. I kid you not. Ewww! ...Anyway the officer called me up, looked at my PP and said, "Oh, you've been here less than a year so you can get it at the airport just before you fly out. The new rules are 6 to 12 month stay exit clearance at airport, only over 12 months must you come to Mandaue office beforehand for it. Now they tell me!
    So, I wasted 3 days and 1000's of pesos, again. Hopefully you won't make the same mistake. Over 6 months, but under a years stay, get it at airport before your flite. Over a year you must get it in advance in Mandaue. The fun never ends!

    Over 6 months but less than one year? Am I missing something? Why don't they just say over 1 year.

    Is it that no Exit Clearance is required if you have been here less than 6 months. So: Up to 6 months = NO EC; 6 to 12 months = Need EC but can get at airport; 12 months and over = Need EC and have to visit Cebu to get it.

    The way I read it;
    Under 6 months no need for ECC
    Over 6 months but less than 12 months need to/can get ECC at the Airport
    Over 12 months you need to go to Cebu/Mandaue to gain your ECC before you can leave the country

    A friend who has just left yesterday for the uk was told by cebu bi he could not get an excit clearance at the airport now even though he was under the 12 months. So check before you go as as mentioned he had a 5 day wait to get his ecc

    It is truly amazing that they just change this requirement based on how they are feeling that day.

    Had your friend already registered for the SRRN?

    I would surely love to have the particulars for my reply to BI because here is my conversation with them just yesterday, via Facebook messenger:

    Which "Cebu BI" was he talking to, at the office or the airport?

    Did he have a current SRRN stapled in his passport/on his current ACR card ?
